Set over set! Lee Juyeol eliminated at 10th place
Level 19: 8,000 - 16,000 ante 16,000
Lee Juyeol was looking good for a final table berth with 43 bb and ten players remaining. However a cooler sent him crashing out in 10th place against Meng Guanrui with a set over set. Hand opened with cutoff Lee min-raising and was callled by the blinds. At the flop 4♦ 6♥ K♥ , Lee c-bet 40,000, small blind check-called, big to 190,000, Lee flat, and small blind got out of the way.
On the turn 2♠ , Meng led for 350,000, Lee shoved, Meng snap-called. Lee flipped over 4♠ 4♥ set and was behind Meng’s 6♦ 6♠ set. The river 3♥ did not produce Lee’s last out and was eliminated.
